The Leader of the Green Party of Quebec who is running for the leadership of the Green Party of Canada Alex Tyrell spoke to Arctic Radio recently.  He talked about some of his visions for a greener future in Canada.  Tyrell wants to solve the housing and drinking water crisis in First Nations communities in Canada and would like to link all major cities with high speed rail.  He says the goal is to get high speed rail to all major cities in the country so the priority sequence would be the big first and he definitely thinks that there should be a branch that goes up to northern Manitoba as this railway would develop.

Tyrell is planning to visit northern Manitoba this summer and the Federal Green Party will choose its new leader in the fall.
